    Does anybody recomened this?

    Tbh it wouldnt really benefit you in any way. Possibly for spreading glazes and sealants but thats about it. These form of polishers would be like a DA but a really powerless version. It wouldnt have the power you need for compounding, polishing or refining. For an extra £3, you could have the...

    What have you ordered? *Detailing*

    Re: What have you ordered? ^^ I detailed my computer last week when i shifted all the internals into another mid tower case. The fans were all treated to C4, lmao :o

    My favourite Vee

    Would love to see this colour in the flesh. When the detailing world brings colours like this to the table, makes the job even more enjoyable.

    Enhancement Detail - Scirocco GT

    I like these in black and the blue. Looks like a nice outcome being done in a day. Hope you get your unit buddy as im trying the same thing at the moment. The expense nowadays is mental so i need a slightly bigger customer base and i think i will then take the plunge. It takes some balls doing...

    Halfords Wheel Brush

    Doesnt look bad at all fella. Just make sure you dont use a lot of pressure on the faces. I tend to use these kind of brushes on the insides only due to the bristle thickness.

    black trim

    ^^^ then buy Gtechniqs C4 and probably never have this problem ever again ;)

    Cleaning my RB 182

    There are tire gels/liquids that dont splatter at all. Swissvax Pneu, Cquartz Perl. These 2 i use and are liquid form so rather it just sitting on the finish like most gels do, they soak in and treat the rubber giving the same finish as any other. Only downside is that you will pay the price for...

    S.V Autobahn

    The first touch is kind of gritty but once rubbed between palms its like a greasy handcream and it disolves almost instantly. I managed to leave it on the wing for 30 mins before it started to rain so i reckon it could of cured for longer too!!

    S.V Autobahn

    Using it on my wheels every few months is still leaving me with a near full pot so it isnt going down, lol. Dont really like having products for stupid amounts of time so i like using them as i need to and have newish stuff in my arsenal. Tried a thin coat by palm last week and was very...

    S.V Autobahn

    Ive not spent loads of time looking around for this but i know its been mensioned on other sites. Autobahn on paintwork? Ive heard thats its more or less the same as the shield wax as it contains PTFE? A few people putting it on their front end during winter is the most ive ever heard. Thought...

    G1 & G2

    Did you prep it properley before hand Dave? I ve had similar problems before. Preping with the G4 glass polish sorted it but i thnk it also lays some form of foundation down for your G1/G3 to go on top. Residue can only be removed with IPA but if its more or less cured then only glass polish or...

    G1 & G2

    Toby, the G2 residue remover is just IPA. G1 lasts a hell of a lot longer than G3 BUT G1 is mainly used for motorway driving and G3 is for town driving. G1 is not very good under 30 mph as G3 is. Get on a motorway and they both work the same but G1 will obviously outlast the G3 in the long run.

    Seriously ?

    I find it very useful for bird s**te. To be very honest, with a good coat of it, bird s**te, tar and paint etc cant bond to it. Wipe over with a mist on a microfibre and you'd be very suprised. Id use it all day long if it had any decent protection and durability properties, minus some of the...

    Best Hand Polish?

    Abrasive yes, but by hand it has a longer working time than P1. Plus you might have to refine the finish afterwards as 203s has the same cutting level as 3.02 but with a higher gloss rating. 203s is an intensive polish as P1 is suited to the pad used.

    Detailing newb.. What else do i need..

    These kind of posts have been covered dozens of times mate which will be in other threads on the same page. All depends how far you want to go and how much money your willing to let go. if you want to cover every step of the cleaning process, you will need all the following: 2 buckets and a...

    Best Hand Polish?

    Clearkote vanilla is a glaze Dave with very light abrasives in it so if your looking for an actual polish that will remove decent levels of defects and marks with no messing around, Gtechniqs P1 is very good by hand. 9 times out of 10 you dont need to refine the finish after which makes it a...

    Toyota Landcruiser 1989 Paint Correction

    Superb mate, as said before the 50/50 shots are crazy. Just goes to show the warm climate you have kills paint like it does. I dont think water spots can be constantly looked after unless you are running around like a hound!!!!!

    Bug Removers ?

    If your car is protected then they should come off easier than you think. Using apc will strip your wax and end up re doing it where you have cleaned. I use CG pro detailer and removes them with ease.

    Few questions (warning, noob content)

    Dont really want to write an essay myself but what you really need to do mate is look on the same section you posted in. Most of you questions will be answered in around half an hr. Supaguard would be rated above the EGP as its defence properties are much much better. Every detailing and washing...

    Few pics with my new camera

    I took the clio badge off when i bought it mate. The renault sport badge was gonna stay until bits of my wash mitt kept getting stuck behind it and also polish residue gets to be a pain behind badges so i took them off in the end.
